  • . Justyn served at a number of local food banks. “The Washington Air National Guard provides camaraderie, a sense of team, and a duty to serve,” says Justyn. Service to his community is an important part of Freeman’s life.  “It is beneficial to help the community as a whole, just to give back,” he says “Nothing really exists in a vacuum. We can’t really do anything without the help of others.”  This past November, Justyn served as the coordinator for PLU Nursing’s Delta Turkey Basket Drive, which

I think we were successful in answering the question.” Through the contest, mathematics and music major Paige Balut ‘21 was excited to get a glimpse

  • to focus on the racial implications associated with the African-American soldiers. In the winter, all the soldiers had to face temperatures that often dipped to 40 below. In the summer, it was mosquito swarms. Long days and low pay were a year-round phenomenon. The African-American soldiers dealt with the added burdens of racism and isolation. The military wouldn’t allow the African-American troops into nearby towns. The soldiers had to contend with inadequate clothing, as many of the troops were

  • on around it.” The spectrometer contains a series of chambers, with the outside chamber forming a vacuum jacket. The next chamber is then filled with liquid nitrogen, which is at a temperature of minus 321 degrees Fahrenheit. Inside the chamber, a superconducting magnet sits in a broth of liquid helium, which is even colder, at minus 452 degrees Fahrenheit. The magnet is charged with electricity, which aligns the spins of the nuclei in a sample, and thereby allows the sample to be studied. “The

The new chamber is then filled with liquid nitrogen, which is at a temperature of minus 321 degrees Fahrenheit. Inside the chamber, a superconducting magnet sits in a broth of liquid helium, which is even colder, at minus 452 degrees Fahrenheit, or just a few degrees above the lowest known temperature in the universe. The magnet is charged with electricity, which aligns the

  • Maintaining Student Engagement Posted by: bodewedl / August 25, 2015 August 25, 2015 by Dana Bodewes, Instructional Designer    The Northwest has experienced some beautiful weather lately and the effects of spring fever are soon to appear in the classroom. It can be difficult to focus on work when sunshine and warmer temperatures are beckoning us outside! Perhaps this is a good time to consider ways to keep your students interested and engaged in class activities. Below I have listed some

  • another Minnesota winter. Hegland will be accompanying geosciences professor Claire Todd as the pair spends 40 days, including Christmas, studying deglaciation in the Antarctic. In English, this means studying how ice has melted in Antarctica over the millennia. The temperatures last time Todd travelled to the frozen continent hovered just around zero degrees Fahrenheit. And surprisingly, the elevation is just about 2000 feet above sea level. Hegland worked at much higher elevations when he was on a
